Biography
Born William Joseph Cody Jr. in Los Angeles, California, where his father Bill Cody was a cowboy star of B-movie westerns, Junior was nine years old when he began appearing in films, the first four of which were with his father. The trade publication 'Film Daily' praised his "fine, natural performance, which should win him a legion of fans." In 1942, he joined the United States military, serving in World War II. After the war, he did not return to film work. In 1989, profoundly depressed after the death of his wife of forty years, Cody committed suicide. He is buried in Los Angeles.
